Antiphon, December 20 (O Clavis David)
2007-12-20O Key of David, And Sceptre of the House of Israel,
Who opens and no man shuts, Who shuts and no man opens:
Come,
And bring forth the captive from his prison,
He who sits in darkness and in the shadow of death.
Amen.
O Clavis David, et sceptrum domus Israel:
qui aperis, et nemo claudit; claudis, et nemo aperit:
veni
et educ vinctum de domo carceris,
sedentem in tenebris, et umbra mortis.
